The Pony Car Is Still Alive: 2021 Mustang Mach 1 To Pack A 480 Horsepower V8

Ford has unveiled a new performance-oriented Mustang in the form of the 2021 Mustang Mach 1.

Bridging the gap between Mustang GT and Shelby models, the Mach 1 packs a naturally aspirated 5.0-liter V8 engine making 480 horsepower, Ford Performance parts from the Shelby GT350 and GT500, as well as a unique design inside and out. You’ll notice that the engine has the same power and torque ratings as the 2020 Mustang Bullitt; namely 480 HP at 7,000 rpm and 420 lb-ft (569 Nm) at 4,600 rpm.

Really, a MACH 1 without a hood scoop...I don't think so! Missed the mark without one and not like Ford.

When I saw this, I thought Mach Meh. It's really pretty terrible looking. And to think that we lost the Shelby GT350 for THIS.

Sure wish they'd use this platform at Lincoln and build a usable 2 door 4 seat coupe. I love this car but want a 4 seater, (Mark IV) thats quiet, comfortable, but handles well and can spin the tires...

A Lincoln Sentinel coupesedan with the Voodoo engine and a slick 10-speed automatic for a $55K base, would be a nice replacement for the Lincoln Fusions (MKZ/Conti). Maybe they will leverage the Mach E platform. As for Marks I think we're at IX.

Really no hood scoop is just not right, a shaker scoop would have been best but we need something here Ford. Also they should have modeled it on the 1970 Mach 1 and put headlights in those front grill holes and turn the headlight assembly into additional vents and turn signals.
